Charlotte Observer Tells
of Many Attractions
Offered Tourists
Sunday’s Charlotte Observer
carried an interesting booster
story for Transylvania county
that is typical of the friendship
of that great newspaper toward
this section. The article follow.s:
“An evidence of the progress in
Western North Carolina Was es-
tablised a few days ago when ah
announcement was made from
Judson McCrary’s real estate of
fice that the largest real estate
deal was made last week since the
boom days of 1926 in Brevard.
This included two pieces of busi
ness pronerty and five residential
sales. This sale of five othei-
pieces of residential properties
was expected within a few days.
“Brevard, “The Land of Water
falls,” is anticipating- one of the
busiest seasons of the past dec
ade. This little mountain citv has
been appropriately called “Pleas
ure’s Paradise.’ It is nationally
known for its 14 camps for both
boys and girls. It is the entrance
to Pisgah National Forest and
gateway to the Great Smoky
Mountain National park.
“Few Western Carolina cities
offer such a diversity of sports as
Brevard and its climate is incom

network of magnificent concrete
highways which enables the visitor

SATURDAY’S PLAY
Penrose and Rosman Will
Play at Home on
Saturday
Pisgah Forest won the first half
pennant in the Sylvan 'Valley loop
by winning seven straight games,
the last one from Lake Toxaway
on Monday morning, when rain
stopped a game that promised to
be an interestin-g affair in the
first of the sixth with the score
.standing 10-4.
Rosman and Penrose each has
one more game to play in the first
half pennant race, Rosman hav
ing four wins and two losses while
Penrose is in third place with two
wins and four losses.
Pisgah will start their race for
the second half flag Saturday af
ternoon at Rosman, with Lake
Toxaway trying- for a good start
at Penrose. Both games are sched
uled to start at 2:30.
Saturday’s games were featured
by a shutout, Pisgah Forest con
necting for a bevy of safe blows
that netted them 22 runs, while
Penrose went wild in the field and
failed to score.
Increased attendance is noted
at the Sylvan Valley games and
some real playing is seen from
time to time. A noticeable feature
of all games is the absence of
squabbling and the spirit of good
sport.'smanship that prevails in all
games. Bob Mackey is manager of
the pennant winning Pisgah out
fit; Ed Stroup is manager of Ros-
man; N. L. Ponder in charge of
the Penrose team, while Happy
Walt McNeely looks after inter
ests of the Lake Toxaway-Quebec
boys. This last named team came
out bright and shiny in new uni
last Saturday.
Democratic Party
Is Pleased With
Roosevelt, Garner
Franklin D. Roosevelt, governor
of New York, and John N. Garner,
speaker of the house, selected last
week by the Democratic national
convention as that party’s nomi
nees for president and vice presi
dent, respectively, are highly ac-
ceptable-to leaders in the party
here.
While the county convention
held .several weeks ago, voted to
send their delegates to ihe state
convention uninstructed, there
was a keen feeling evident among
Democrats at the convention to
wards Governor Roosevelt.
Repeal of the Eighteenth
amendment was advocated in the
platform adopted by the conven
tion,_ this phase of the platform
possibly being of wider interest
here than any other portion. Ex

below:

Brief Illness Is Fatal to
Beloved Lady in

Mrs. Elizabeth Hughes Ward
for many years an annual visitor
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Da
vid G. Ward, and greatly beloved
by her many friends in Brevard,
passed away at her home in New
York city on Monday, July 4th,
after a brief illness.
Mrs, Ward, the widow of the
late Rev. William Ward of Corn- ¥ « • - «
wall, England, and later of North 1 I AWPt* I llCTf*irfr TA
Carolina, was born in London, | l/lMlltl lO
Eng., and came of distinguished
ancestry, being- a descendant of
Admiral Sir Edward Hughes, who
served with Lord Nelson at the
Battle of Trafalgar, and a cou
sin of Thomas Hughes, author of
Tom Brown’s School Days. Mrs.
Ward lived for a number of
years in Asheville, and later be
came a resident of New York
city. She was an active member
of the Baptist church and one of
the founders of Ridgecrest, the

and saved seed for two' years.
Planting on April 18 of this
spring, Mr. Glazener gathered full
grown corn on July first, a gain
;ix days in maturity over the
previous year. His gain last year
was also six days, giving 12 days’
gain in the two years that he se
lected his own seed.
Mr. Glazener has kept accurate
records and is looking forward to
the time when he can have a good
white corn that will equal if not
surpass the fast growing sweet
corn.
BIG-HEARTED MAN WANTS
TO HELP TOWN’S NEEDY
A Brevard man who must
have at lea.st one corner of his
heart patterned after the Man
of Galilee, but who is adverse
to any publicity, is really in-
teie.sted in taking care of
those who are unable to pro
vide for themselves, and is
proving his interest in a sub-
.stantial way.
This particular gentleman,
who is con.pai-atively a new
comer to Brevard, has con
tributed the sum of one hun
dred and seven dollars to the
Welfare Board since la.st No
vember, and nary a cent of it
has been asked for—the big-
hearted man dropping in at
unexpected times with a check
for fifteen or twenty dollars,
with only the words, “I hope
this will help out a little.”
May his tribe increase!

Alleged Assault
CLIFF0RD~^HER
HELD FOR CRIME
Evidence Points Toward
Brutal Attack, Offi
cers Say
Clifford Fisher of the Reids Sid
ing section is being held in Tran
sylvania county j|iil charged with
the death of Will J. Fisher, 55-
year-old resident of the Lake Tox
away section. The prominent eld
erly man died early Tuesday
morning at Lyday Memorial hos
pital, where he was brought Mon
day in a serious condition, with
out gaining consciousness.
Evidence produced at the cor
oner’s inquest held Tuesday at
noon at the Brevard Undertaking
parlors was to the effect that
Clifford Fisher, a distant relative
of the deceased, was responsible
for the death of Will Fisher, it
being alleged that Clifford struck
him several times over the head
and face with an iron rod late
Sunday afternoon, and then bru
tally assaulted the stricken man
while he lay unconscious.
as the opinion of the jury
summoned to hear the case, that
the blows which practically caved
in the face of the dead man also
fractured the base of his skull,
causing death. They recommend
ed that Young Fisher be held
without bond, and preliminary
hearing has been set for Monday
■"Trning*, July 11, at ten o’clock.
The affair took place at the
home of Ben Thomas in the Reids
Siding section about seven o’clock
last Sunday afternoon, according
to evidence brought out at the in
quest held before Dr. G. B. Lynch.
Edwin Owen, son of Alfred Owen,
was the principal witness at the
hearing, and it was upon his testi
mony-that the coroner’s jury bas
ed its verdict.
According to the evidence given
Mr. Owen, he and Miss
and Nettie Thomas were on their
way to church late Sunday after
noon. and upon reaching the
home of Ben Thomas, were at
tracted by the loud talk and curs
ing going- on in the residence.
Stopping- in the road which runs
within 25, yards of the Thomas
home, he testified that Will Fisher
was either shoved or knocked out
the front door and that Clifford
Fisher followed immediately be
hind him
After the elder man had taken
only a few steps, Owen testified,
he was struck by Clifford Fisher
with a weapon, later idei^ified as
iron rod about twenty inches
length, from behind and knock
ed to the ground. Clifford then
pulled his victim up and again
struck him with the weapon, re
peating this malicious practice
three times. Clifford then slung
the injured man against?»a chim
ney, Mr. Owen testified and
jumped on the fallen man, stamp
ing him about the head and body.
He then shoved him over a small
embankment. Still not satisfied, as
it appeared from the witness’ tes
timony, Clifford is alleged to
have got on the then unconscious
man and threatened to" cut his
throat unless he was gone in ten
